Guest Reviews
- Renata Przęczek (10/5): - Wszystko znakomite,kontakt z p.Joanna i rady przez cały czas pobytu. Ruch uliczny w nocy,ale dla nas to nie problem.
- Dimitar (10/5): -
- Zoltan (10/5): - A lakás nagyon tiszta, teljesen felszerelt, jó beosztású, a házigazda segítőkész, nagyon kedves. Csak a környékkel nem voltunk elégedettek, piszkos, lepusztult. De ez nem a házigazda és maga a lakás hibája, hanem a városé.

- Wyleżuch (10/5): bardzo ładny i czysty apartament , blisko centrum - lokalizacja , czystość , kontakt z właścielem , duży i jasny apartament , polecam dla rodziny idealny, wszystko to co potrzebne na miejscu, przyprawy oraz kawa i herbata również, Pani Joanna bardzo pomocna o każdej porze , dziekujemy nic
- Luise (8/5): - Kommunikation per WhatsApp problemlos und schnelle Antwort. Leicht mit dem Auto erreichbar ohne quer durch die ganze Stadt zu müssen. Liebevolle Einrichtung im alten italienischen Stil. Sogar mit Waschmaschine! 20 Minuten zu Fuß bis zum Zentrum ist vor allem am Abend zurück bergauf etwas mühsam (bin Ende 60).
- Kinga (10/5): Wszędzie blisko - Czystość, bardzo miła pomocna właścicielka
- diana (9/5): -
- Pavleta (10/5): -
- Fernanda (9/5): - Dos colchões das camas. Muito mole
- Vanya (10/5): - Много чист апартамент, обзаведеден със всичко необходимо. На удобно място. Свободно паркиране.
Собственичката Йоана е изключително мила. Отсядаме за втори път и отново бих се върнала в Катания и точно в този апартамент.
Благодаря ти Йоана 🩷 Шума на улицата, но при затворени прозорци не се чува.

- Justyna (10/5): - Pobyt w Porta Garibaldi spełnił całkowicie nasze oczekiwania. Mieliśmy w apartamencie wszystko, co bylo nam niezbędne. Kontakt z właścicielka wspaniały, bardzo pomocna osoba. W sytuacji kryzysowej ( problem z wynajmem samochodu) udzieliła nam pomocy, reprezentujac i wyjaśniając z wypożyczalnią naszą sprawę. Za co jesteśmy ogromnie wdzięczni albowiem uzykalismy zwrot wpłaconej kwoty.
Polecam serdecznie. Nie ma takiej rzeczy.
- Elia (9/5): Superb - A clean pleasant apartment. easy self-check-in, 15 minutes walk from the center of Catania.
- Borislav (8/5): Very good - Neighbourhood
- Petia (8/5): Very good - The apartment was very clean and neat. It was very spacious, there was a coffee machine and coffee available for us, fridge was working properly. We felt like we were at home. The host provided great guidance over chat and proposals for good places to see, eat and shop. The air conditioner was very small and could not provide enough heat to warm the apartment. It was cold especially at night. The show was very weak also and it was not pleasant to take a shower when the water is running slowly.
- Eduardo (8/5): Very good -
- Dilan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Vanya (10/5): Exceptional - Great apartment, the host Yoanna was very kind. Location was great.
- Helin (9/5): Superb -
- Marija (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing apartment with very kind and helpful host :)
- Jenna (10/5): Exceptional - Joanna the host was so kind and friendly. Joanna was great to communicate with as well. She greeted us at the apartment and gave us a list of recommendations which was amazing! The apartment was absolutely adorable and met all of our family’s needs for our stay.
- Doroteya (9/5): Superb -
- János (10/5): Exceptional -
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sashka (10/5): Exceptional - Was all good.location.aorcondition.cleanines.confort and the host is very helpful. N/a
- Pissalidou (10/5): Exceptional - Joanna was a really great host! Very kind, polite and helpful.
The apartment was very well renovated, fully equipped and super clean.
Relatively near to the city centre, only 15 minutes walk. Plus, it was quite easy to find a free parking place! The surrounding area was a bit depressed, but it has other advantages, you can park easily and in 10 minutes walk you can be at the city centre which is lovely.
- Marija (7/5): Great apartment but located in a gheto - The host was great, everything excellent in the apartment. Apartment is located in some gheto, traffic is completely chaotic, hard to find parking space, I was affraid for my rent-a-car to be damaged. I lot of noise from the street, not just from the traffic but fights and shouting from local people. A lot of mosquitos despite mosquito netts on some windows. I rented the apartment because it's near the airport (we had an early flight), but I don't reccomend the location.
- Marieke (9/5): Perfect place to stay! Walking distance to all the sights, but quiet enough to sleep well. - Our host was super nice and accomodating. I didn't meet her in person, but my husband did, when he picked up the keys. She would have given us all the information we could want about Catania, but since my husband was born there (we currently live abroad), that wasn't necessary. We were always able to find a parking spot outside, close to the apartment. The apartment is in an older building, but inside it's very nicely renovated. We liked our stay and would come again!
- Lilla (10/5): Amazing, would book again! - Very clean, has everything you need. Mostly loved the bathroom. The host is really nice and friendly, we were very lucky. A bit noisy outside
- Daniel (10/5): Exceptional - Very comfortable apartment with easy parking options. I'd like to highlight the hospitality of the host.
- Joann (10/5): Perfect 10! Beautiful Apartment! - The host was extremely helpful with information about the city and transportation to the airport.
The apartment has everything one would need and is beautifully decorated. It is about a 15-minute, easy walk to the Duomo. We would recommend this apartment without hesitation. Nothing! Wonderful host and apartment.
- Sophie (9/5): Very nice appartement. Also for trips outside the city. - The apartment was very clean and foreseen with everything that you need.
The host was very friendly and very helpful. Always willing to help us with our questions. First night the neighbors were a bit noisy, but also here our host was very engaged and proactive. The second night it was super quite.
- Ildikó (10/5): Exceptional - The owner is amazing and the flat was super clean and cosy. It is not the nicest part of the city, but safe and only 15 min walk from the center.
- Aleksandar (10/5): Amazingly clean apartment - Everything!!!!
- Ronnie (10/5): Porta Garibaldi - A stay not to regret 😉 - Joanna is a SUPER host! She is always ready to help the best way she can 24/7 and even goes out of her way! The apartment looks very nice and very well organized, extremely clean and it has everything you need! A very good choice of apartment. The only thing is that the location is like 20 mins walk away from the center.
- Jess (10/5): Exceptional -
- Daryna (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was great, the hostess was the best, she was always responsive and very helpful. The apartment was fully equipped with everything a person may ever need -
- Christina (10/5): Highly recommended. - There is nothing not to like about this property. It is stylish, spacious and exceptionally clean. It has everything you need. The beds are crisp and comfortable. The rain~ shower head in the bathroom was a welcome bonus.
The guest guide was packed with tips and sight seeing information
We stayed in 4 different hotels/apartments during our Sicily ‘road trip’ and this property was the best by far. Although there is air con in the living room, it would have been a bonus to have it in the bedrooms too. But, it was exceptionally hot in Sicily last week.
- Zlatko (9/5): Excellent place to stay in Catania - Property was excellent, clean and well equipped with everything that made our stay comfortable. Host was extremely helpful and very friendly. Joanna checked in every day via txt making sure everything is OK. Location was good, easy walk to the Catania Archaeological Park and than onto the centre. We found free car park on the street across the property and no issues with anything. Area also felt very safe day and night.
I would highly recommend to anyone looking for place to stay to book Porta Garibaldi. Everything was great
- José (10/5): Perfect Stay - Everything was perfect, the host was very friendly and tried to help us with everything related to our stay.
